Explosive Claim: Onanuga Dismisses NDC As Gathering Of Desperate Politicians

Onanuga argued that the opposition party has not presented any detailed governance blueprint, despite positioning itself as an alternative to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

In a post shared on his account on Friday, he said he visited the party’s website twice in search of its manifesto and governance agenda but found no accessible document outlining its plans for Nigeria.

He noted that although the party recently attracted prominent figures such as former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi and former Kano State Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, its policy direction remains unclear and undocumented online.

Onanuga said his intention was to compare the NDC’s vision with the “Renewed Hope Agenda” of President Tinubu and the APC. However, he claimed that despite a section on the website prompting users to download the manifesto, no document was available upon attempt.

He further stated that although the party was registered in February, it had yet to publish a full manifesto, instead listing only broad policy themes described as “pillars.”

According to him, these policy ideas were vague and resembled familiar political rhetoric, particularly statements often associated with Peter Obi in recent years.

The presidential aide also challenged the party’s national leadership, including Senator Seriake Dickson, to clearly outline the party’s vision and policy direction for the country.

He described the NDC as a political platform attracting figures seeking new political alignment ahead of the next election cycle.

Onanuga wrote that despite multiple attempts, he could not find any downloadable manifesto on the party’s website, receiving a “No document found” response each time.

He concluded by saying the party appeared to be “a camp for the politically displaced and desperate,” questioning its ideological clarity and long-term vision for Nigeria.
